if god persists, persists in saying yes
E                                   G
i guess we'll have, we'll have to test ourselves
D                                   A
maybe the summer, will come and clear our minds
E                                   G
and find the impulse, to love the sunshine

indian summer, still hurt and broken
D                                  A
and leave all this material belief
E                                  G
remember the reasons the reasons that made us be
